I think you know where I'm going with this........For the uninitiated it will be the FA Cup games from here until the final. A simple home/draw/away pick. Where I can I will do write ups in the blog section but that will depend on time and OLBG bucks, but will try to do at least the Southend United games (like the confidence there with the plural )

Having exhausted my Titanbet account with my 1 a day blog I have deposited 2,000 points, so 50 points for each of the 40 games in Round 1.

One game to kick off tonight

Cambridge United V Wrexham – Cambridge United at 2.50

Will post some more up later & in the morning, although have to be out by 10.15 to play myself as we have an early ko, no not in the FA Cup but in South Division 10 of the Amateur Football Combination......

The FA Cup returns so I get back on the road to Wembley with Fleetwood at Yeovil tonight & 17 tomorrow & a couple on Sunday. So there is a write up for tonight's game in the blog section, but will probably pass on most of the games tomorrow, well except the Southend game obviously. Picks up later & in the morning then.

Write up is owed for the final replays but think it ended nicely if I remember.

With the 2nd round replays nearly upon us I thought I had better round up some previous results.

With 40 games I managed to get half of them right. A mixture of minor surprise and obvious higher league wins, and as has become important on my other blogs 4 draws were correctly predicted, one thanks to a 90 minute goal for Gillingham.

Naturally let down by a few as Plymouth failed to beat non league oppo at home, same story for fellow League 2 strugglers Dagenham who couldn't beat the Conference's bottom side.

11 games then went to a replay and a good night with those as 6 were predicted correctly. The big win was predicting Walsall & Exeter would need more than the 90 to split them, and home wins for Grimsby & Southend against higher league oppo was also handy. League 2's bottom 2 let me down in the first matches and again in the replays, Plymouth were beaten when I thought they'd draw whilst Dagenham drew when I thought they'd lose.

Last catch up then and the 2nd round a couple of weekends ago. As I was sleeping off a hangover I missed one of the Sunday games which was a bit annoying as I miss the 100% picks and would probably have gone with the league side to beat the non league side which they did, but then I guess I would say that......

So of the 19, 8 were correctly predicted. Of the big faves I went for only Brentford let me down losing to Conference leaders Wrexham. Dagenham redeemed themselves for their failures to support me in the first round by holding Walsall to a draw as predicted.
